Man charged third time with burglary

An 18-year-old man previously charged with allegedly committing two robberies has been arrested a third time, for armed residential burglary and grand theft.

OCALA - An 18-year-old man previously charged with allegedly committing two robberies has been arrested a third time, for armed residential burglary and grand theft.

Early last month, residents of a northwest Ocala home reported someone burglarized the residence and stole an electronic game system, discs for the system and a Smith and Wesson 9mm semi-automatic handgun.

Detective Steve Danuhauer got a description of the person allegedly responsible for the burglary as well a description of the clothing that person was wearing.

The detective recovered the clothing and the game console.

Last week, a traffic stop by an Ocala police officer led to recovery of the firearm. One of the occupants of the vehicle said two of his friends brokered a deal with Quantre Demell Scott, who sold them the weapon.

Danuhauer then found the two men who alleged that Scott sold them the firearm.

On Tuesday, the detective went to the Marion County Jail and re-arrested Scott.

Scott has also been accused of robbing a store owner and an Ocala business last year.
